Big Brother Season 20 has gotten off to a rather lackluster start. With a bunch of new twists thrown in, the show is starting to feel like Big Gimmick instead of the show waste so many hours every summer watching when we should probably be doing other things that are way more productive. Julie Chen confirmed on Wednesday’s launch show that viewers would be able to influence the game more than ever this time around. Viewers are allowed to vote to give specific houseguests a good power or a dangerous power. Thanks to the lid being lifted on the live feeds on Thursday night, the game is starting to take shape. We learned that Faysal Shafaat received “Hamazon Delivery” app, and that’s by no means a good thing. He was gifted with a game-changing twist, and it could come at the expense of his tenure inside the house. The more troubling thing here is that Faysal barely got a moment on-screen in the two episodes that have aired so far, so it probably means the others have come across better. Will we get to see another side to him on the live feeds? Quite possibly. In any case, he is being force-fed meat boxes that are being delivered at a quick pace. It was originally supposed to be ham, but it was swapped out with vegan ham because of his religion. We are still awaiting confirmation on which houseguest won the extra dose of power this week, but based on fan reaction; it sounds like Sam could be the lucky victor. Ever since entering the game, she has been at a big disadvantage. She lost out in the first competition and was turned into a robot. This means that she is taken out of the house at times, and the houseguests can only communicate with her via a robot. This appeared to hurt her game Thursday night when the first HOH competition found the houseguests trying to throw her out of the competition by filling her tank with balls. In the end, Tyler emerged as the winner. He had a conversation with Sam and understood that she was having a tough time of it in the house. However, he rewarded her by throwing her up on the block alongside Steve, so there’s that. If one thing is becoming clear, it’s that there is no loyalty in the Big Brother house. As for the first showmance, that comes in the form of Chris “Swaggy C” Williams and Bayleigh Dayton. Bayliegh was the one who talked Swaggy (yes, the name is ridiculous!) down from his high horse after winning one of the first competitions. On Thursday night, the pair were flirting like crazy on the live feeds. Hell, at one point, Bayliegh even said that Swaggy would look good under her tree at Christmas. It’s risky getting that close to someone in the house so soon in the game, but we’re sure we will find out whether they have any lasting potential in the coming weeks. Okay, Big Brother fans! We have the veto competition coming up, as well as the winner of good app. What are your thoughts on the first round of spoilers? Hit the comments below.

Bethenny Frankel and Carole Radziwill aren’t the only The Real Housewives of New York City stars to have a frittered friendship . Luann de Lesseps and Ramona Singer weren’t exactly joined at the hip before, but now Luann is taking her to task. Why? Because Ramona betrayed her trust when she was at her most vulnerable — right after she got out of rehab. If you watch The Real Housewives of New York City online , you already know what went down on the episode titled: ” Arrest and Relaxation. ” But one explosive conflict from the episode really merits a closer look. On Wednesday night’s episode of RHONY , Luann did not mince words when she referred to a group photo that Ramona shared with the world. “The she-devil strikes again,” Luann announced. She-devil can either be very confrontational (because yikes!) or very complimentary (it’s what Red Sonja is called, after all), but Luann meant it in the worst sense. Luann explains: “I really feel like Ramona invaded my privacy by putting a picture out of me when nobody knew where I was.” The Countess was in a very vulnerable place in her life and did not feel encouraged by the entire world knowing what she was up to just yet. “And now,” Luann says. “The whole world knows I’m out of rehab.” She wanted to let the world know on her terms, when the time was right. She feels that Ramona robbed her of that opportunity. What’s more is that Luann fears that Ramona’s thoughtless photo — which, in fairness, Ramona did later delete — could impact her appearance in court. “I have a court case coming up,” Luann laments.”I don’t need more press!” Being a reality star has its pitfalls. Luann explains why publicity is a problem, saying: “I don’t need pictures of me and the press making guesses at what I’m up to.” The rest of us might look at a headline that says Luann de Lesseps: Out of Rehab and Drinking Already? and question its veracity. But if a judge sees that kind of speculation, it might change Luann’s life forever. Since the news was out in the open anyway, Luann did make it official with a post of her own. “It’s good to be home,” Luann wrote to her fans and followers. “I’m doing great. Spending time with friends and family. Thanking everyone for your continued good wishes and support.” “My return to New York is supposed to be on my terms,” Luann tells the camera.. “I just feel like I got the rug pulled out of me.” She felt shocked that others knew before she was ready to tell the world. On RHONY , she’s seen giving Ramona a piece of her mind. “You put a picture up and now Luann is the talk of the town again,” Luann laments. She does acknowledge that she knew that it would happen sooner or later — but that she feels betrayed that it was by Ramona’s hand. “It’s inevitable that I will be in the press again, I just don’t want my friends to drive it,” Luann says. “You opened up a can of worms for me.” “These are hurtful things. You’re hurting me,” Luann explained. “You have to be more respectful and thoughtful about your friends.” Ramona was shocked, having not realized that she was doing anything wrong. “We also post group shots! It’s a beautiful picture,” Ramona said, at first being defensive. Ramona did realize that she was in the wrong and apologized, saying: “You didn’t tell me not to post. … I’m sorry.” Ramona, to her credit, became very apologetic and worked to make things right. “I’m disappointed in myself,” Ramona admitted. “I wasn’t thinking. Now I understand. … I made a huge mistake. This was bad. What I did was bad.” Luann also had another bone to pick with Ramona. See, Ramona had been hanging out with Luann’s recent ex, Tom D’Agustino. “There are so many guys on the Upper East Side. Really?” Luann tells the camera. She continues to complain to the camera about Ramona, saying: “You have to go and have drinks with Tom? I knew Ramona wasn’t the brightest tool in the shed, but what an idiot.” To be honest, that seems a little harsh. “It’s not cool,” Luann said, yelling at Ramona. “If you’re my friend, it’s not cool. What you did, most people would never talk to you again.” Whoa, there. She spoke with him socially. She didn’t bang him. “That is the lowest of the low,” Luann insists, feeling betrayed. “Do you realize that? What you did is the lowest of the low.” Ramona explained that she hadn’t been there to meet with Tom, that they had just happened into each other. “Just because Luann divorced Tom doesn’t mean he’s going to disappear,” Ramona says. “He travels with the same circle as I do,” Ramona continues. “He has the same friends as I do.” That’s one of the big pitfalls of a breakup — everybody knows each other. Ramona then throws some shade, saying: “Listen, if I couldn’t talk with every man Luann ended up being with, I wouldn’t be talking to any men in New York City!” Luann is not amused, however. “You make it worse,” Luann accuses. “You don’t have my best interest at heart and I can’t be around that.” Wow.

Despite the occasional bit of good news from Jamie Otis and Doug Hehner , most of the news about Married at First Sight couples is, well, bad. It goes with the territory. Jaclyn Schwartzberg and Ryan Buckley’s news is no exception — these two are splitting after less than one year of marriage. What’s more is that they actually broke up a while ago. Did you know that Jaclyn and Ryan aren’t even the first Married at First Sight couple to have those names, right down to the spelling? Well, like Jaclyn Methuen and Ryan Ranellone before them, Us Weekly reports that Jaclyn Schwartzberg and Ryan Buckley have decided to call it quits. As we mentioned, this apparently isn’t too recent, either. A source tells Us that this conscious uncoupling actually happened “a while ago.” The two apparently were waiting for the news to break before confirming it. But Jaclyn has come out and acknowledged the breakup on Instagram. Jaclyn writes: “We have split,” confirming the news. On top of making official, she wants to assure fans of the series that this is for the best. She writes: “and trust me we are both much happier and healthier this way.” That is usually the case for divorces. You don’t end a marriage just for fun. And it’s also no surprise for these two specifically, given that, back in January, viewers saw that even their honeymoon seemed tense and full of conflict. “Thank you so much for all the love and support,” Jaclyn says. Jaclyn assures her fans and followers: “We ALL deserve a good love story.” Sure! If you want one. Plenty of people would prefer to experience a good success story. Jaclyn affirms that people deserve love “whether you find it in high school, tinder, out dancing, on vacation, or a show.” “Love is love,” Jaclyn says. “And it certainly doesn’t judge.” That is very sweet of her to say. Though also in her self-interest, since she got married on a reality show. Jaclyn referred to the many people whom she met during her journey on Married at First Sight . “This was a fabulous bunch,” Jaclyn writes. She enjoyed meeting them all “and I’m always grateful for learning experiences.” it’s good that she’s walking out of this situation with a positive attitude. Jaclyn writes that she values learning opportunities, “especially when they involve self growth.” Marriage to a total stranger would have to qualify, right? (This was a photo of Ryan and Jaclyn’s honeymoon in Jamaica) Ryan has not yet responded to the breaking news on Instagram, as of Thursday afternoon, but on the show itself, he more than hinted that he would not be emotionally devastated by a divorce. And though his his an avid user of Instagram, one has to scroll through a couple of months to find any photos of Jaclyn. Ryan’s parents, we should note, have been married for about 40 years. So that’s a bit of contrast. It sounds like this breakup was reasonably amicable, but we’re sure that there are still a lot of complicated feelings. Even though they were total strangers before their wedding. View Slideshow: 19 Most Bitter Breakups in Hollywood History

I find it very weird that Sophie Mudd is promoting Body Glove, as an influencer, getting paid to wear the brand, even if it’s a low level Costco sold brand, it is still a Surf Brand, that doesn’t use surfers like Anastasia Ashley to promote their shit, but instead use some instagram slut with massive tits that are totally out of proportion to her body in what I call a genetic disorder we can all celebrate and jerk off to… But still, Sophie Mudd, monster tits, got famous and a following on social media by posting pics with other sluts, in the “Share for Share” tactics…and it worked, she’s here, she’s now, she’s her most relevant and only going to get more famous… She’s the new Rat Cow, who is hotter than Rat Cow…and she’s getting work…sure it’s work that makes no sense to me…but the media buyers at brands and agencies are 23 year old retards who are like “Sophie Mudd did Yeezy, she’s cool, let’s use her despite her being a slut”….for an athletic brand…what the fuck.

After Jimmy Fallon tried to walk back some of his 2016 friendliness towards Donald Trump, the POTUS let him have it on Twitter. Specifically, Trump demanded that Jimmy Fallon “man up” and not apologize for humanizing Trump during a critical election year. Fallon responded by donating to a group working to help immigrants. He also went after Trump in a monologue. Watch! So, Jimmy Fallon expressed regrets for that shameful incident in which he had Donald Trump on as a guest during the 2016 election. At the time, Fallon ruffled Trump's hair as if Trump were just some eccentric reality star and not a clear and present danger to American ideals and freedoms. Trump saw Fallon's regrets and, as he is want to do, flipped out on Twitter. So Jimmy Fallon responded in his monologue. “Before we begin,” Fallon tells his audience. “I just wanna give a shout out to our show’s number one fan — the President of the United States!” Picking up on his intention, the audience applauds — something that you're not likely to hear Trump elicit outside of one of his infamous rallies. Jimmy sets the stage. “As you may have heard last night,” Fallon says, explaining the premise. “The President of the United States went after me on Twitter.” “So Melania, if you're watching, I don't think your anti-bullying campaign is working.” Melania's proposed bullying campaign has been a source of many jokes, even before she shared that it was called “Be Best.” It seems that Melania doesn't really care . “When I saw that Trump insulted me on Twitter,” Fallon explains. “I was gonna tweet back immediately, but I thought, 'I have more important things to do.'” That line, of course, is just a set-up for his punchline. “Then I thought, 'Wait, shouldn't he have more important things to do?!'” Fallon exclaims. “He's the president! What are you doing? Why are you tweeting at me?” Many have lamented that Trump spends so much time on Twitter. But that pales beside his record-breaking time spent golfing. “Crazy,” Fallon says. “The President went after me on Twitter. It's pretty much the only thing I have in common with NFL players.” Trump has, of course, been famously critical of football players who kneel in protest of rampant anti-black violence. “In response,” Fallon says, reiterating what he had already tweeted. “I made a donation in Trump's name to the Refugee And Immigrant Center for Education and Legal Services.” RAICES is an organization that many see as the perfect counter to Trump's preference of placing refugees, asylum seekers, and others who cross the border in internment camps. “Or RAICES,” Fallon says, leading up to his next joke. “When Trump heard that, he was like: 'I love RAICES, they're my favorite peanutbutter cup.'” Fallon then proceeds to deliver some mild burns to Trump. “A new poll found that 58 percent of Americans think President Trump is intelligent,” Fallon cites. Sorry if that statistic crushes the final vestiges of anyone's lingering faith in humanity or the American public. Fallon jokes: “In response, Trump was like, 'Ok, what did the other 58 percent say?'” Fallon then moves on to poking fun at Trump's lack of geopolitical savvy. “And today at the White House, Trump met with the King and Queen of Jordan,” Fallon says. “Which got awkward when Trump thanked the King of Jordan for giving us Michael.” That line refers to Michael Jordan, a famous baseball player. Fallon then went on to make quips about Sarah Huckabee Sanders getting asked to leave a restaurant and then about Trump's angry Twitter response that better resembled a Yelp review. Is Jimmy Fallon especially funny? Not in this monologue. (You can enjoy the monologue because of its politics without finding it to be a laugh riot) Should he be forgiven for his hair-ruffling humanization of Donald Trump during such a critical election year? Probably not, but history will be the judge. But it is definitely not appropriate for the President of the United States to use his position to attack comedians. Or restaurants. Or political rivals. Or, you know, people with brown skin. Considering that Trump locked up a couple thousand kids in cages and called for Samantha Bee to be fired , his attack on Fallon was relatively mild. Good for Fallon for using the opportunity to donate to a good cause, though. He deserves credit for that.
